Between elaborate costumes and exclusive parties, Halloween is no joke for celebrities. It’s the perfect moment for stars to get creative, an opportunity to break from their usual wardrobes in favor of over-the-top costumes and offbeat hair and makeup. It’s time to really put those Hollywood stylists, glam teams, and disposable incomes to use. Put simply—don’t expect any bagged Party City costumes from the VIP crowd.
This year’s batch of costumes has already included everything from tongue-in-cheek pop culture references (Lizzo dressed up as an Ozempic shot), classic outfits referencing landmark films like The Matrix and Striptease, and couples costumes from Selena Gomez and Benny Blanco. Since Halloween falls on a Thursday this year, stars have two whole weekends to really show off their spookiest fashions. So, to make sure you don’t miss one spine-chilling look, check back here to see every celebrity costume from Halloween 2024.
